QR Codes: Message in a Bottle.

Single, and ready to
mingle? Lacking confidence to use your favorite pick-up line on the girl (or
guy) at the bar? No problem! Harry’s bar in Singapore decided to help single
men and women use technology to solve this problem, giving a whole new meaning
to “a message in a bottle’.

In an ever-growing and
advancing world of technology connecting people, QR codes have found its way
into the matchmaking business. Patrons who are too shy to approach the opposite
sex can purchase a bottle of beer with a QR code in it, which they scan and
type in a message. The bottle will then be delivered to the other party, who in
turn scans the code and reads the message.

Harry’s main goal was
to sell more beer, particularly during happy hour, and they succeeded.
